　　新东方2010年秋口S-T原文及点评

　　2010秋9.12口译考试题目与解析，新东方第一时间放送——

　　Sentence-Translation

　　1. We know that language use is a life-long process, so is the foreign language learning. There is no short-cut in learning a foreign language.

　　学英语是没有捷径的，活到老学到老，相信大家都有共识。作为第一句，难度较低，即使不做笔记也能翻出来，给大家吃了颗定心丸。

　　2. I'm afraid we'll have to change our appointment for Friday morning. Something unexpected came up, and I'm sorry for the inconvenience this might cause you.

　　本句是在预约改期时的惯用说法：先说明目的—“改期”，然后解释理由—“不可抗力”，最后对带来的不便表达歉意。

　　3. After some discussions we have reached compromise on the key points and will come down to details of the contract at our next meeting tomorrow afternoon.

　　商务谈判中的常用语。抓住关键字“compromise”和“details”，就能翻出句意。

　　4. A famous educationist once said, "Nobody is completely ignorant. Nobody knows everything. All of us lack knowledge of something." That is why we continue to learn.

　　智者有云：无人一无所知，也无人通晓一切。同第一句一样，不需笔记也能翻出。

　　5. Today I'm pleased to announce that our government will dramatically expand the number of students who study in China to 50,000 in next 10 years.

　　五句听译中唯一出现数字的一句，而且难度颇低--- “50 thousand”和“10 years”。不过横向比较今年高口听译中的数字，“2 billion, 5 years, 4%, 1%, 27”，中口也显得不那么简单了。
